[jira] [Created] (OAK-2734) Compaction does not finish on repository with continuous writes

Michael Dürig created OAK-2734:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Compaction does not finish on repository with continuous writes 
                 Key: OAK-2734
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2734
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: segmentmk
            Reporter: Michael Dürig
            Assignee: Michael Dürig
             Fix For: 1.2.1


A repository with continuous writes can keep the compactor from completing causing the repository size to grow indefinitely. 

This effect is caused by the compactor trying to catch up with changes that occurred while compacting. I.e. compacting them on top of the already compacted head. When there is a steady stream of incoming changes it can happen that the compactor never actually catches up.
